Formatting of Copy Paste

In Version 5.1.3.2 (old version). I can pastes code from Visual Studio with all the formatting, in the update 5.2.3.3, all the formatting is removed.
See the attached odt document for example

Thanks

I can confirm this behaviour in Version 5.2 and 5.3 for Writer and Impress.

I am attempting to copy text from Eclipse. All formatting is lost, i.e. fonts, colour tokenizing, etc. when the selected text is pasted into a Writer document or Impress presentation. 

It appears PASTE (CTRL+V) is behaving in exactly the same manner as PASTE UNFORMATTED TEXT (CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+V).

Pasting text within other applications such as Wordpad, etc. preserves the formatting. In other words, it is definitely the PASTE function within LibreOffice, _not_ the COPY/clipboard function.

The problem does NOT arise in Version 5.1.6.2. I have therefore had to revert to an older release of LibreOffice.

Hope this helps with problem identification.
